Vote YES! on 3 to prevent animal cruelty

It's cruel and inhumane to confine animals where they can't even turn around. Citizens for Farm Animal Protection is a grassroots campaign in Massachusetts working to end the cruel confinement of veal calves, egg-laying hens, and pigs by securing a resounding YES! vote on Question 3 in November.

Join this historic campaign

Thanks to the help of more than a thousand volunteers, we gathered more than 170,000 signatures from registered Massachusetts voters to qualify Question 3 for the November 2016 ballot. By voting YES! on Question 3, we will help protect animals from abuse.

Massachusetts voters Tuesday passed a groundbreaking ballot question that will mandate all pork, veal, and eggs farmed and sold in Massachusetts come from pigs, calves, and laying hens not confined to ultratight quarters.

The 2016 election is one of the most polarizing in history, with many relatives and neighbors sharply divided. Some of these rifts involve deeply held but conflicting beliefs. Thankfully, there's a measure on this year's ballot that's bringing together people of all political persuasions.

About the Issue

Citizens for Farm Animal Protection is a grassroots coalition working to prevent cruelty to veal calves, egg-laying hens, and pigs by campaigning for a YES! vote on Question 3 of this November's ballot. These animals are crammed into cages so small they can't turn around or extend their limbs. This practice is abusive and increases the risk of food safety problems, like Salmonella. We're a broad coalition of non-profit organizations, farmers and businesses, community leaders, and grassroots activists dedicated to enacting Question 3 to ban the cruel confinement of farm animals. Thanks to the help of more than a thousand volunteers, we gathered more than 170,000 signatures from registered Massachusetts voters to qualify for the ballot. By voting YES! on Question 3, we will help protect animals from abuse.
